Thanks...
"RAKE"= the way your car is higher in the back and lower in the front, old school term...I suspect the reason is due to those massive rims in the rear which are what size, BTW?

Cool ride.

I love the old school z28 logo on the front. Not sure about the huge drag tires though..do you DD those? It makes the rear rims look smaller than the front. The car looks good overall though.

Thank you and yes I DD them since there drag radials. But I must admit the size of the rears does take away from the rear wheels.

Beautiful car man! i love it. Did you have to do anything to make the rear tires fit? did you have clearance issues? im thinking of going to a 315 or wider tire on my camaro but im worried about rubbing.

Thanks and ya I had to do some trimming inside to make them fit. I still have a little rubbing on the pass side only but I think i can fix it just need to mess with the ajustable panhard. I had 335/35/17 Hoosiers before these and those fit with zero issues.

The spoiler is an aftermarket SS spoiler and the rear is narrowed 2.25" on each side
